Today I was mowing on my super z and a guy was mowing the yard beside the one I was mowing and he was using a john deere 777. I also mow the yard on the other side of the one he was mowing. I walked thru his yard while weed eating to get to the other house. My yards looked so much better than the one he was mowing. Alot better. I love my hustler and the quality of cut I'm getting. It outperforms jd's by a bunch.
